PROCEDURAL STEPS

  1. Open the EV Project EVF11101 Regular Tuck Lock — Snap Lock.evr.
  2. Insert a drawing: include the file EVF11102 Regular Tuck Lock — Snap Lock.evr in the same project: on the File menu, click Insert Drawings.

To directly invoke the Layout Wizard, ensure that the Run layout wizard check box is selected.

  1. Create a new layout drawing and start the Template Layout Wizard: from the Layout toolbar, click New Layout Drawing .

To invoke the layout wizard, ensure that the Run layout wizard check box is selected.

  1. Place the EVF11101 Regular Tuck Lock — Snap Lock.evr drawing twice to form the first row of the layout: click Next on the Select Template step and Second Part steps.
  2. Place the EVF11102 Regular Tuck Lock — Snap Lock.evr drawing as a third part: select it in the Drawing list in the Third Part step.
  3. Rotate the third part at 180 degrees: click .
  4. Move down the third part of the layout so that it adjoins the part "under" it: click Move Down (Vertical Adjustment control group), and then click Next.

The fourth part is automatically placed in the Fourth Part step.

  1. Click Next.

The Sheet Placement step appears.

  1. Set the number of rows and columns of the layout: select the Fill By Counts option, and then in Rows and Columns consecutively set the number of rows and columns — 4 rows x 3 columns.

note: When you apply the changes in the number of rows, the Different second row check box must be selected. This indicates that the second row has a different offset and these changes will be applied to every even row. We will also clear the Different second row check box. This will result in the overlapping of the second and the third rows.

  1. Due to the different second row, apply corrections manually: to switch to the Align 2-nd column and row dialog box, click Corrections. Click Align Vertical Center , and then select consecutively the uppermost vertical line of the first row's tuck in and the lowermost vertical line of the second row, corresponding tuck-in. They are aligned to become collinear, without overlapping.
  2. Click OK.
  3. To complete the layout, in the Sheet Placement step, click Calc Sheet, and then click Finish.
